I just kept clicking on the next minute mark (YouTube lets you jump to any arbitrary point without having to wait for the whole thing to buffer) over and over until I got to the part where you actually see what he's demonstrating. Took maybe 15 seconds to see the point and then I closed the tab... Not sure it really required a 7.5-minute video to make that point, though! -Charles -- Charles Robinson - [email protected] Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org http://www.facebook.com/charles.robinson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
